VSO's Big Sisters (Community volunteers) continuously lobby with school management to enhance teaching-learning methodologies. Incorporating technology in school is one of them.

Peer mentoring and parental awareness organized by Big Sisters have been very effective to ensure children’s regularity in school.

Big Sisters Initiative is a peer mentoring model introduced in Nepal in 2013 through VSO’s years of dedicated volunteering work.
Girls are the ambassadors in this model, breaking and challenging harmful social norms and structural barriers. @UKinNepal @EUinNepal @VSO_Intl
